Woodside to fund rock art scholarship
One of Australia's largest energy companies will fund a three-year postgraduate scholarship for research into a collection of Aboriginal rock art on Western Australia's Burrup Peninsula. The carvings currently are at the centre of a heritage listing controversy, with Woodside Energy seeking to build an LNG processing plant in the area. Federal environment minister Ian Campbell has said the site met the requirements for heritage listing, but this week admitted it could be "many, many" months before a decision was made. Dating back to the last Ice Age, the site is said to be several thousand years old, featuring hundreds of thousands of petroglyphs.
